As the name suggests, a non-nucleophilic base is a sterically hindered organic base that is a poor nucleophile.Normal bases are also nucleophiles, but often chemists seek the proton-removing ability of a base without any other functions.

It is used as a non-nucleophilic base, being comparable to LiHMDS in terms of steric hindrance. Synthesis It is ...
N,N-Diisopropylethylamine, or Hünig's base, is an organic compound that is a tertiary amine. It is named after the German chemist Siegfried Hünig . It is used in organic chemistry as a non-nucleophilic base. It is commonly abbreviated as DIPEA, DIEA, or i-Pr 2 NEt.
LiHMDS is often used in organic chemistry as a strong non-nucleophilic base. [3] Its conjugate acid has a pK a of ~26, [4] making it is less basic than other lithium bases, such as LDA (pK a of conjugate acid ~36). It is relatively more sterically hindered and hence less nucleophilic than other lithium bases.
There's a controversy brewing involving the nation's newest military branch over the potential of moving Air National Guard units into the U.S. Space Force.
Tetramethylguanidine is mainly used as a strong, non-nucleophilic base for alkylations, often as a substitute for the more expensive DBU and DBN. [3] Since it is highly water-soluble, it is easily removed from mixtures in organic solvents. It is also used as a base-catalyst in the production of polyurethane. [4]
